Season four of Home Improvement. There’s a Gator board conspicuously placed on the set, looking spotless and unused. ESPN magazine has some sort of feature planned on Vision and Vision Street Wear. They are hitting up the old school bloggers for photos. Paying even. I was going to dig through my archives, but I decided to pass on the basis that I don’t want to contribute to anything that glorifies a company still trying to make money off of a notorious murderer, and one that wishes they would give the royalties away at that. Check out Home Improvement on YouTube until it get’s pulled. It’s from season four, an episode titled “The eyes don’t have it,” circa 1995. The skateboard makes an appearance around the 3:42 mark, but it just sits there, so…. Hold on, that episode is mid 90’s, bso that means that board was sitting around in props for a good 5 years or so before they used it. – Thanks to Jimmy Pills for the tip.

rumor has it, after Gator murdered that chick, they took the board off the set.

… and the fat, bearded cohost of Home Improvement was in the movie with the chimp. Holy interconnectivity!

JTT rocked a Plan B hat for a lot of shows.

Great episode. The board is still alive as props. Good handling. More power on the board and keep it as props until more episodes to come.

I saw my homie Frankie Hills board on a few sets probably after. That’s crappy to pull an episode that they all worked so hard on just over that image. That was and still is one of the raddest boards made and not because it says gator. It was the shape that I loved..I had went through a couple back then and never knew wth was going on.. the vision gator IS a cool board.. FUCK Mark regowski
